The Transfer Tavern

Liverpool outcast eyed by Besiktas ahead of summer move?

Liverpool fans are looking up in the Football Transfer Tavern and over to the pool table, where our landlord is standing and dishing out the gossip coming from the Daily Mirror, who seem to think that the Reds are set to let Mario Balotelli leave.

Now as our regulars note, that comes as no shock whatsoever, with the forward failing to impress and frankly being a total liability – and someone we think needs to move on and try his luck elsewhere – with manager Brendan Rodgers clearly not a fan of the player, nor willing to give him a chance.

The lucky club who could secure £16 million Balotelli’s services are Besiktas, with Turkey just about one of the only leagues the player has not tried his hand at – and given no club in La Liga or France would touch him, this may be the last roll of his dice.

Liverpool fans. Would you give Balotelli another season or is he someone you just want to get rid of? Let us know your thoughts below.
